The Pale Fountains - From Across The Kitchen Table

  • The Pale Fountains' Ian Broudie-produced second record ditches a couple of the scatterbrained influences of the debut, so it makes for a slightly more consistent listen. Not all of the odd wrinkles are abandoned, though; they still sound as if they are trying too hard to distinguish themselves from the rest of the flock. The Fountains' strength lies in folksy pop, but on a few too many occasions, the incessant smoothness and inability to latch onto one style holds them back. Surprisingly, the title track is almost synth-pop, but a smattering of horns makes sure it isn't completely such. On "September Sting," they try their hands at Laurel Canyon country-rock and fall flat on their jumpers. When they want to, they can write finely tuned, sophisticated pop songs that are quite pleasant. Instrumentally, "Stole the Love" doesn't sound a great deal different from the Smiths. "Shelter" and "Jean's Not Happening" are fine strummers. Though a decent record and an improvement over the debut, Kitchen Table frustrates. They were too anxious to zig or zag when they could have stayed the course. After establishing themselves as a cult band, The Pale Fountains eventually broke up, with Michael Head forming the similarly cultish Shack.

    a legendary album, which will have marked the history of pop music. In another style, largely as good as their 1st opus. Produced by Ian Broudie

    I hear this once in our school fair in 89 and never left my mind. This is the version I love as it presents the Magnificent, Awesome voice of the backup lady vocal and always wonder who she was. The trumpets also add to its zing. Perfect!

    In a cheap hotel room the miraculous way you bucked up
    when I said you were incredibly beautiful
    remember Arthur Seaton said he won't be beaten
    look at jimmy price what with the weight of Christ
    I don't know they say maybe it's the water across the kitchen table
    and I don't know they say maybe it's the water
    you saved my life, I fought you
    you should have told me to stop
    oh, why did you let me keep on going for you?
    you saved my life, I fought you
    you should have told me to stop
    oh, why did you let me keep on going for you?
    i've seen all your hooks, read the important books
    and thought about the disabled
    but the only thing between you and me is the fact you laugh when i'm unstable
    but I don't know they say maybe it's the water across the kitchen table
    and i don't know they say maybe it's the water
    yeh, you saved my life, I fought you
    you should have told me to stop
    oh, why did you let me keep on going for you?
    Bada ba ba... Bada ba ba... Bada ba ba... Bada ba ba...
    Bada ba ba... Bada ba ba... Bada ba ba...
    yeh, you saved my life, I fought you
    you should have told me to stop
    oh, why did you let me keep on going for you?
    you saved my life, I fought you
    you should have told me to stop
    oh, why did you let me keep on going for you?
    you saved my life, and I rold you to STOP, STOP, STOP...

      This is the version from the CD Virgin issued. Think it was remixed by Gordian Troeller (as was Bicycle Thieves). I prefer the original vinyl LP version of both Table and Bicycle Thieves.
